Well you know that bit of blue sea that always looks like its flicking the bird at someone?

Well thats the Red Sea, and its always inbetween Eggwhite and Saudia Arabia.

Typical americans and typical american news (facts optional).


True story:
I told someone last year I was going to Wales.
Obviously confused, I said it's in the UK. More confused looks, England, I said.
They asked if I was riding my bike all the way there.
Noooo I replied. Then they asked me if I had to cross an ocean to get there.


Obviously someone who voted for GWB.

What's wrong with this picture?

That's right folks, the people at Fox News don't have a f***ing clue where Egypt is!

I wouldn't say it was an invasion. That's what 'they' did. I say we 'escorted' 'them' back home. At least that's what happened the first time round.

Just a shame we were not allowed to finish the job properly then.

brilliant. They should really realise that where they think Egypt is, is a country they've already invaded!
